Kalmar

Products: tugger, forklift. Risk band: Elevated   RobotRisk index 25.8/100 (severity- and time-weighted incidents) · ranked 2 of 4 among AMR / mobile robot companies with incidents (105 tracked).

Analyst brief

The record contains two recall entries, both severity 3: a 2023 Ottawa T2 terminal tractor recall for cab tilt cylinder failure risk, and a 2017 terminal tractor recall for electrical fire risk from ground cable and PDC wiring defects. Both entries are regulator-driven recalls rather than press-reported incidents, and both concern the same terminal tractor product line across a six-year span. Kalmar's index of 25.8 ranks 2 of 4 companies in AMR / mobile robot with incident history. The record shows a recurring recall pattern on one product family rather than a single isolated action.
